New hand-held vapour detector identifies explosive substances
Airline Industry Information, June 25, 2008
AIRLINE INDUSTRY INFORMATION-(C)1997-2008 M2 COMMUNICATIONS LTD
A new hand-held device from Smiths Detection, part of the global technology business Smiths Group, is designed to detect volatile chemicals commonly used in home-made bombs.
The SABRE EXV hand-held vapour detector can detect and identify explosive substances, including peroxide-based chemicals, in as little as 10 seconds, the company claims. It is expected to fill a gap in detecting Improvised Explosive Devices (IEDs) for the airline industry and the military in particular.
